Installation


The universal back plate is identical on both the Themis and the Tisis. As you can see it easily fits on our 1155 socket motherboard and will no doubt fit easily on any compatible AMD or Intel motherboard. Just pop the four long screws through the plate and the motherboard, which only takes a few seconds to do.

Four plastic spacers hold the screws in place and can be tightened on by hand, only taking a minute or two at most to install. Plus an extra two minutes I then took to clean the CPU die up as its caked in old thermal grease, whoops!

The four screws are easily accessed with a long thin screw driver, and the whole thing dropped into place with ease.

I then mounted the fan, which was a little tricky to place as the rubber pegs at the bottom are hard to reach with the ram in place, and the ram is hard to install with the fan in the way; even so it only took a couple of minutes.

Ram clearance is really good, although you could always mount the fan in pull configuration is you really need the extra room.

The Tisis was also very easy to install, it’s mounting system is identical to that of the Themis, so I won’t bother showing you the same thing twice. The tower is mounted with both fans removed, then you add the fans afterwards, the middle fan was a little tricky to place, but overall it’s a job that will only take a couple of minutes.
